Well, defensive lineman have to make sure they don't land on the QB or they get a personal foul.

If anyone thinks the game is a flagfest now, go ahead and make the hip drop illegal. The game will be unwatchable.


Totally agree . Hutchinson was going on for the sack Dak was resisting . Case closed

Can’t hit him high can’t hit him low, can’t put your weight on him, can’t touch his head, can’t throw him to the ground,can’t use your forearm how are you supposed to tackle a big QB.


You’re not supposed to touch him didn’t you get the memo .

Watch Golf there is no contact . The Mike Tyson analogy is absurd . Your too sensitive .
You couldnt answer yes or no. Youre a bot that is coded to distract and gaslight.

You are not able to be reasonable. You have to be the anti-hero.

Lame.

It's ridiculous that this is legal in an era where defenders get tossed out of the game if they even touch a quarterback after he throws the ball.

There's a line between safety and taking the physicality out of the sport, but the hip-drop tackle is too dirty and dangerous. It's just as dangerous as the horse collar.

This threads two replays....neither tackle was a drop to the ground like dead weight needed.

Ron...please keep talking in circles. The game has room to be refined safety wise without making it a non-contact sport. But please sell me that its either contact or no contact.
